iShares Bitcoin Call Options Volume Reaches 1.58 Million

The trading volume of iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) call options has been recorded at 1.58 million. The 3-day call skew has risen by 0.05, indicating an increase in call demand in the short-term options market. According to Solid Intel, the volume of IBIT call options has reached 1.58 million, and the increase in the 3-day call skew is the largest since January 2025. Call options provide the right to purchase the underlying asset at a predetermined price, and the increase in trading volume is interpreted as a signal that market participants are increasing their exposure to the upside. The skew is an indicator that shows the relative price difference between call options and put options with the same expiration, and the rise in the 3-day call skew means that the call option premium has relatively increased in the short-term expiration options. This figure indicates a shift towards call options in the short-term derivative demand linked to the Bitcoin (BTC) spot ETF. IBIT is BlackRock's spot Bitcoin ETF, which allows for adjusting risk exposure without directly trading the spot price of Bitcoin through options. This increase in trading volume is interpreted as a growing demand for short-term calls in the IBIT options market.
